About this home
Positioned as the only large-scale, brand new luxury residence currently available in Southwest Fort Wayne, boasting 5800 finished sq ft and an empty lot next door, this architectural masterpiece sets a new standard for luxury living by Cornerstone Custom Homes. Designed with an elevated, neutral earth-toned color palette, the residence seamlessly marries contemporary sophistication with timeless craftsmanship, featuring authentic Indiana limestone accents, rich custom millwork, and top-tier organic finishes throughout. Step into an expansive open-concept floor plan grounded by detailed trim, stunning staircase and large windows flooding the home with light.

Inset hinge custom cabinetry abounds and the well appointed butlers pantry is not only visually beautiful but functional. With 5 spacious bedrooms and 4.5 bathrooms, the layout offers complete comfort and privacy for guests and family alike.
